Joe Biden created a crisis at America’s southern border when he took office by trashing virtually every one of the policies President Trump put in place.
Wall construction? Ended. Remain in Mexico policy? Canceled.
The result was a clear message to millions in poorer nations that the border is wide-open and that the social benefits, including cash payments, from the United States government were there for the taking.
Millions have, in fact, come in illegally.
Biden says, while visiting border state Arizona, he isn’t going to bother stopping by the wide-open boundary with Mexico because there are “more important things going on”.
Biden has stubbornly resisted visiting the border as the migration crisis continues to cripple border communities faced with floods of migrants entering the country illegally.

More from Fox News:
Asked by FOX Business’ Edward Lawrence whether the president planned to “see the situation for himself” on Tuesday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre evaded, saying investments in chip manufacturing will bring major economic opportunities.
“He’ll be visiting TSMC, a company making a major investment to manufacture cutting edge chips in Phoenix. This will bring new jobs and economic opportunity to Arizona,” Jean-Pierre said. “And it’s in large part thanks to the Chips and Science Act.”
She then accused Republicans of “doing political stunts” rather than working with Democrats on immigration reform.
Fox News’ Jacqui Heinrich pressed Jean-Pierre on a potential border visit in 2023 if not on Tuesday. Jean-Pierre again evaded.
“What are Congressional Republicans going to do to actually deal with this issue instead of doing political stunts?” Jean-Pierre said, alleging that these “political stunts” ultimately hurt families who are merely trying to leave a dictatorship and seek asylum in the United States.
Jean-Pierre insisted last week that President Biden has been to the U.S.-Mexico border, despite no record of him having been there — even as vice president.
